The shifter I bought used had about 30,000 miles on it. I replaced a 986 shifter with over 100,000 miles. Part of the improvement may be due to the lesser amount of use on the replacement part.

I recommend this upgrade, but there may be better options.
I believe the shifter you are referring to that’s shorter is what’s on the gt2 and gt3 if I’m not mistaken. I know the 987 / 997 is for sure is better then stock but just wondering if it’s better to just get the short shifter kits rather then stock
